Xu Buling felt that he had dug up the coffin, so he stopped and turned all the dirt open with a hoe, revealing the coffin painted with black paint underneath.

Zhu Manzhi took a crowbar from the horse's side, and Xu Buling stood next to the coffin and forcibly pried the coffin open with a crowbar.

As soon as a gap was pried open, a black mist drifted out of the coffin.

Xu Buling's face changed suddenly, he held his breath and suddenly rose from the ground, fell outside the grave, picked up Zhu Manzhi and ran out, jumped into Zhangzhang, and did not stop until dozens of zhang away.

Zhu Manzhi thought that he had seen a ghost, the torches were all lost, hugged Xu Buling's neck, and screamed 'babbling~', and his little face was buried in Xu Buling's arms.

"Sure enough, it's the Lock Dragon Gu ......"

Xu Buling hugged Zhu Manzhi with one hand, and did not forget to raise his hand and caress her back twice, as if holding a girl.

The black mist that came out of the coffin made Xu Buling feel familiar.

Last year in the Weihe area, he had a high fever and was bedridden in the carriage, and when more than 100 assassins came over, he happened to come over, and he fought with a sword with his instinct, and was smashed by thieves with a bottle at his feet, which contained this black fog.

Thinking of the severe pain that eroded the limbs and hundreds of remains, Xu Buling still recalls it with a hairy heart, if it weren't for the inhuman physique and tenacious desire to survive, I am afraid that he would have been freed at that time.

The person in the coffin has been dead for ten years, and the Gu poison still exists, which shows the domineering nature of this lock dragon Gu.

Xu Buling was thinking about it, and suddenly heard a small mutter:

"Buddha and Taoist bless, the little woman has no intention of offending the ghosts and gods, if you want to find it, you can find Xu Shizi, it is the grave he dug ......"

Xu Buling suddenly came back to his senses, turned his head and glanced at Zhu Manzhi sitting on his arm with his face buried, shirking responsibility incoherently.

Xu Buling's face was full of black lines, and he patted her buttocks: "Zhu Great Sword God, you are like this as a guard?" ”

Zhu Manzhi trembled, quickly shut up, cautiously opened his eyes and looked at it, and only after making sure that there was nothing with scarlet fangs on Friday, he reacted, and jumped down from Xu Buling's arms with a "yah-" sound, and smiled with his head down.

Xu Buling shook his head, and he didn't have the same knowledge as her, so he took the wine gourd from his waist and poured it, then tore a piece of cloth from his clothes, soaked it with spirits, and covered his face. Zhu Manzhi's black scarf is also concocted in the same way.

After waiting for half an hour on the periphery, until the black fog in the coffin cleared, the two of them cautiously walked up.

Xu Buling jumped into the pit, opened the coffin completely, and the body inside was revealed under the light of the fire.

The corpse had long since become bones, but it was not white, it was jet-black from head to toe, and most of it was broken.

Xu Buling pinched a piece of leg bone with a handkerchief and picked it up to check, but it shattered with a light pinch of his hand, which was extremely fragile.

Zhu Manzhi looked at it in horror and whispered, "Is this caused by the Lock Dragon Gu?" ”

Xu Buling glanced at the marks on the bones: "After the poisonous hair, the limbs were eroded, and the bones were all broken, it must be the Lock Dragon Gu." ”

Xu Buling jumped into the dirt pit, put his leg bones on the snow, and then cut his fingers with a knife and dripped on his leg bones.

A drop of blood quickly turned jet black, but nothing happened.

Xu Buling's brows furrowed, his eyes flashed with surprise first, and then with a little depression.

Zhu Manzhi was far away, puzzled: "What is this for?" ”

Xu Buling was silent for a moment, and then said: "The so-called 'Gu' is mostly to put hundreds of insects in the vessel and seal them, so that they can fight each other and kill each other, and after a few years, it is 'Gu' who is still alive." The secret method of making the Lock Dragon Gu has long been lost, but it is called 'Gu', and the method should be similar. If it is the Gu poison produced by two 'Gu's, the strong one will suppress the weak one, and it is impossible for it to coexist. ”

Zhu Manzhi seems to understand: "What about now?" ”

"The Lock Dragon Gu on my body and the Lock Dragon Gu on this corpse are produced by the same Gu worm."

After Xu Buling finished speaking, he put the leg bones into the coffin, closed the coffin cover, and said nothing.

Zhu Manzhi saw that Xu Buling's face was cold and fierce, so he didn't dare to speak......

-----

In the middle of the night, a torch flickered on the snowfield.

Xu Buling rode a horse on the way home, his face was not very good-looking, and he looked at Chang'an City with a sea of lights from time to time.

Zhu Manzhi sat honestly behind her, the horse walked very slowly, she didn't have the cheekiness to hug Xu Buling's waist, she just grabbed Xu Buling's placket with her hand, and after brewing for a long time, she smiled:

"Xu Gongzi, don't worry, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, at least now we have determined who caused the poison, and if you know who gave the poison, you can know who to ask for the antidote. Xu Gongzi's martial arts are so high and smart, there must be a way......"

Xu Buling came back to his senses, suppressed his complicated emotions for the time being, and smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth:

"When this is done, I will take you back to Xiliang and arrange a position for you as the chief doorman of the palace, and we can wave as much as we want."

Zhu Manzhi was stunned for a moment, his big eyes blinked, his face turned a little red unconsciously, his boots swayed on the side of the horse, and he thought about it for a while while with his fingers:

"Xu Gongzi, I often hear Shulang tell the story of heroes, and anyone who says, 'Wait until this thing is done', it doesn't seem to end well......"

“……”

Xu Buling was speechless for a while, and the atmosphere that had finally brewed was gone, and he spread his hands and said helplessly:

"It's okay if you're not happy, I ask Ning Qing to go to Xiliang at night as a guest, she will definitely be willing."

Zhu Manzhi suddenly became anxious, raised his little face and said nervously:

"I'm happy, anyway, my dad and mother ran away from home, and I can go wherever I want...... Still, I want to find my mom and dad......"

"Okay, I'll wander the rivers and lakes with you when the time comes."

"Hee-hee-hee......"

Zhu Manzhi leaned forward a little, a little curious: "My mother likes flowers, I like it too, is Suwangfu beautiful?" ”

Xu Buling nodded: "Suwang's Mansion is very large, I lived outside the city alone when I was a child, and there is a big sea of flowers outside, every spring, the sea of flowers is endless, there is a small room in the middle, there is a particularly big bed in it, and ten people are not crowded ......"

Zhu Manzhi blinked his eyes wide, slightly puzzled: "What do you do to make such a big bed?" How much trouble is it to get out of bed? ”

Xu Buling 'hehe' laughed twice and said seriously:

"When I was a kid, I was naughty, I was jumping around when I went to bed, and I accidentally rolled under the bed. The palace really had no choice, so he got a very large bed, and there were swings, wooden horses, etc., which was fun. ”

"Wow~ I really want to see it...... Such a big bed, it must have been comfortable to roll on it......"

"Just rolling?"

“…… Or else? ”

“……”

The cold wind is blowing, and in the vast world outside Qujiang Pond, the two of them are gradually drifting apart......
